Monarchs grace chieftaincy installation

Residents of Mgboko Ngwa Amaise in Obingwa Local Government Area of Abia State, as well as their king His Majesty Eze Eberechi Dick were happy to host several traditional rulers who came to witness the chieftaincy installation of Chief Izuwa Nwogu.

Speaking at the installation, Eze Dick said Nwogu was being honored for all he did at a young age to lift the image of his community, local government area and state.

Eze Dick said that the array of traditional rulers from the East, West and Northern parts of the country who came to witness the event shows that he is a bridge builder and also shows that he is well accepted by the people wherever his business empire has taken him to.

He urged the recipient to continue to be of good behavior and an enviable ambassador of the Ngwa tribe of Abia state and that any day he deviates from being a good man that God will not forgive him, adding that he should also help the youths of his area through empowering them.

The chairman of both Abia state tradition rulers council and the South East traditional rulers council said that when the youths are empowered that the issue of criminality will be a thing of the past while the revenue base of both the council area, his community and the entire state will be increased.

Responding after receiving the title of Nwadioha nma of Igboland, (the child that is accepted by all) Chief Nwogu said that he will continue to ensure that all the tribes where his businesses have taken him are united for the peace and progress of the country.

Nwogu said that it is only when people of diverse culture and tradition realize that they need to live in peace that there will be rapid development of their areas and the entire country, stressing that peace is the panacea for better things to come for any group.

He assured the traditional rulers present that wherever he sees anything good that he will never hesitate to bring it down for his people and that wherever he finds himself that he will ensure that he will never bring shame to them, “I will always protect and ensure that no shame will be brought on my people through any thing I do now or in the future”.

In his speech HRM Oba Al-Moruf Adekunle Magbagbe Ola the Olufon of Ifon, Osun state described the recipient as a very humble and good young man who is a philanthropist who does not discriminate, “Here is a young man who has absolute respect for his elders and the traditional rulers”.

“This was one of the reasons that made me and other traditional rulers here not to waste time to accompany him to be honored by his people, he is a good ambassador of Ndigbo in Yoruba land”.

In his own reaction the representative of Etsu Nupe, HRH Alhaji Yahaya Abubakar who presented a gift to Eze Dick from the traditional ruler of Nupe kingdom, described the recipient as their illustrious son who has done well outside his state of origin.
